World agrees on how to fund nature protection DW 02/28/2025
Briefly

Nations have successfully reached a compromise during a recent UN Biodiversity Conference in Rome to fund protections for wildlife, especially in impoverished nations. This breakthrough follows a stalled agreement from last year's summit that aimed for $200 billion annually by 2030 for biodiversity initiatives. Delegates expressed gratitude for the achievement after three days of intense negotiations, acknowledging the importance of global cooperation in addressing species loss and environmental challenges. COP16 President Susana Muhamad emphasized the collaboration as a vital step toward sustaining life on the planet in the face of severe ecological crises.
Protecting wildlife is essential to human survival, but reaching agreement on funding can be a slow process.
In these turbulent times, it is inspiring to see 196 countries come together and overcome differences to reach a shared solution.
The applause is for all of you. You have done an amazing job.”
Our collective capacity to sustain life on this planet is the most important purpose of humanity in the 21st century.
